Hi Dell,
My left is great, no swelling and healing lovely. The right is a bit more swollen, but it's doing fine.
I don't have any bruising, thanks to the arnica. I'm even managing to sleep slightly on my side, which is so comfy.

I know what you mean about the itchy incisions though. I was sat last night very lightly scratching over the top of my bra, just to give some sensation, and that seemed to deal with it.

Fab news that you're healing well!
When do you go back to see your surgeon?

morning gabby, i go back monday to get dressing removed, so another step forward hey,

i am managing to sleep sooo good now, i was even slightly on my side last night, i had a fab sleep, bless my OH is doomed to the blow up bed on the floor hehe, i like it!!!!! cruel i am.

my boobies dont seem as big now and i feel a little disappointed, but im just going to take the experienced ladies advice that have posted on here, who say give our boobies time, as they will go through many changes, i defo want a full d/dd chest,

i was so worried at first that they were going to be too big and now im worrying they are going to be too small, haha, us women are very hard to please. hope you are feeling well lovely.xxxx

I bet they'll fluff Dell.

Your poor OH :heehee:

I'm back to see PS on Friday, but I don't know what for really. Probably just to check the wounds, heh? Maybe have the dressings changed, i don't know.

He said I can wear a soft bra from now on as long as it doesn't interfere with the incisions, so I might see if I can see something online.

Enjoy the sunshine xx

Hi Girls

So nice catching up and reading how you all are.

I'm still on the count-down for my BA day; not long now!!!
I haven't been sleeping well waking up every hour or so - unsure if its nerves or over excitement?! Screwy

Having been so relaxed; i'm now a total wreck..... just want it done now!

Hi i am new to the forum today and am having my BA at spire parkway solihull on the 27th April, with MRS CC Kat. Never been so excited in my whole life. Just a little worried about managing my 2 boys post op, my youngest is only 20 weeks!!!

by Peachy34 14th April 2011, 2:09 pm

Hi Spamf0rd, Have you got much help with the little one for after your op if its available for the first few days take it. I had overs so my recovery was easy my little one was 7 months when I had my 1st op. It is difficult not to lift them but if you come down to their level or let them climb on your lap for cuddles it makes it much easier than trying to lift them up. Good luck with your op!

by Spamf0rd 14th April 2011, 2:45 pm

Hi Peachy34
My hubby will be around until the tues after so that takes me to day 6 post op, my mum and law can help after that if i need her too. I am having overs as well and had read that the recovery time was much quicker than unders. Thankyou for the response x

Ah you're the 19th too hon! Don't be a wreck...remain calm. I too just want it done. I also wish my body was looking more toned! lol! x

Hi everyone

I am doing ok, very happy with my new boobies, Have only been out the hospital a few hours. I am staying at my mums till sunday. Getting looked after which is lovely.

Shanny I hope you are ok lovely please keep me up dated xxxx

by Peachy34 15th April 2011, 5:24 pm

4 more sleeps woo hoo so thats 3 of us on the 19th then.

I was the same the first time nerves really got me so I'm hoping to keepp them at bay this time but its creeping closer and I have had the odd fleeting thought of am I doing the right thing going under the knife in the name of boobies again.

Ah well in a few days it will all be hopefully over and my recovery will be easy and complication free and I won't have to face another op for a long long time. Well unless I save up for lipo lol but that would be after I've saved for my botox lol.

Hoping all you post oppers are having an easy recovery and all you pre oppers aren't too nervous. Big hugs to you all xxxx

by shanny60 15th April 2011, 6:26 pm

by Peachy34 16th April 2011, 9:21 am

You lucky things being 1st ones down I was the last on my 1st op and it was way after 7pm when I went to theatre and I had been told toget there for 12. I hope I don't have as long a wait this time. I'm being picked up at 11.30 and it takes a couple of hours to get there so I can see it going the same way again. At least I'm getting sorted and in 3 sleeps it will be new boobies take 2. xx

Not long now xx
I have been told to come down for midday - been put back from 1130am until midday so i have a bad feeling i'll be last on the list too....
Going to pack plenty of mags to try to keep the nerves at bay (which at the mo. is impossible)
It takes about 3 an a half to 4 hours to get there - not looking forward to the journey there or back home BUT it will be worth it in the end!!

GoodLuck everyone x Hug

by Drea 16th April 2011, 10:39 am

by butterfly2 16th April 2011, 10:58 am
